Now priced at £43.54 on Amazon UK - still too expensive for me to consider double dipping - £29.99 and I might reconsider. I haven't seen any announcement of further such compilations.
ETA: Some reviews on Amazon UK state that the sound mix on the first episode of The Sontaran Experiment is a bit screwed up and that the new CGI on Revenge of the Cybermen cuts in and out apparently randomly. Anyone like to comment on those points?

The CGI problem did not happen on my player. Might be a firmware issue on older players?
The Snotaran story's audio got mangled somewhere in the manufacturing process and audio polarity was reversed, creating a phase problem. Not everyone will recognize it, audiophiles absolutely will. Those who can hear the difference may or may not care.
Peter Davison's first season coming to blu-ray
Well they're certainly skipping around so far.
Seasons 9 (Three and Jo), 18 (Four in burgundy, his last season) and 26 (Seven and Ace, series finale) are reportedly the next ones lined up after that.
EDIT: At the rate they're currently going, assuming they save Hartnell/Troughton to the very end (and don't want to have to keep redoing those particular discs), they've got about four-five years (2023!) before they'll have to buckle down and either animate - or in some other way recreate - the remaining missing episodes, with or without whatever Phil Morris has been digging up.

My hope is they do all of them and not just the perceived "best" ones, then skip the rest.
It's worth it if you didn't shell out $25-30 a pop on each DVD 'episode' a decade or so ago. Now you get a whole season's worth of episodes, all the previous DVD extras (where, unlike most TV shows, BBC pretty much emptied everything they had into the disc) plus a handful of new ones, all in one convenient package, all for around $50. Yeah, I'd say it's worth it.
Having flipped back and forth between my DVDs and the Blu-Rays there's a definite improvement. Now, you have to put that in the context of what you're looking at. It's still cheap 1970's videotape but it's the best presentation of cheap 1970's videotape you're going to get.
Until the 4K’s
Tegan gives us a season 19 blu-ray set safety video
That's awesome. 
...probably more awesome than most of season 19.
The documentaries look fun at least. If nothing else, you can tell those guys really enjoy each others' company.

Yeah, Peter Davison himself especially should appear in all of those blu-ray box-sets. He's frickin' hilarious!
$70 for US fans, £45 for UK. And UK gets it two weeks earlier.
I'm sure it won't be the final price, but... ouch...
